Accurate or not it sure is unattractive. You're joking right?

Accurate or not it sure is unattractive. Classless. I don't have any "good" rifles. All mine are perfect rifles. Compared to what?

If I were buying another 30-06 it would likely be a Savage 110 with Accu-Trigger.Unless of course I found another JC Higgins Model 50

Accurate or not it sure is unattractive. Swampy,The same can be said about a lot of stuff you have showed us pictures of.

I'll second that, I can't get my .30-06 Sauer 202 to group 5 shots under .5 MOA That is one ugly rifle!

My SC made M70 Featherweight shoots awesome. No problem shooting groups averaging 1 inch of a bit less using a Leupold fixed 4x. Never used a higher power scope, but methinks that my rig will kill stuff the way it is.

I want one of those 700's you have to bed, float, adjust and tweak to get a group that won't get you laughed off the rifle range... Sad really, I want to buy American but I have to draw the line somewhere...

The most accurate rifle that I've owned out of the box is a Ruger M77 MKII. I must just be a lucky guy.

I have had many, many rifles and the most accurate right out of the box in 30-06 has been the TC Venture. big surprise to me, but that gun just loved 180 gr hornady's. and those bolts are silky smooth, great gun for the money !

Most accurate 30-06 factory rifle bolt gun out of the box under $750? factory rifle accuracy is a matter of luck.

The most accurate 30-06 I've ever owned was a Remington 721. Sub MOA was not difficult with that rifle using modern ammo components. dan

Well considering I am a die hard 700 Remington fan, my money would be on the Tikka and over $750 the Sako...Russ
